Paul Pry, a cunning and charming rogue with a sharp wit, teams up with Mugs Magoo, a one-armed former detective with an extraordinary memory for faces. Together, they form a unique partnership, unraveling complex schemes and manipulating the criminal underworld for their own gain. This time, their target is "Big Front" Gilvray, a master criminal who operates with impunity. Pry's interest is piqued when a manicurist is forced into an elaborate crime involving an incense burner and coded shipments. Using his fencing skills, quick thinking, and elaborate deception, Pry turns the tables on Gilvray’s operation, replacing stolen goods with harmless substitutes. Gardner crafts a fast-paced tale filled with clever twists, sharp dialogue, and an engaging dynamic between Pry and Magoo, making this a thrilling and entertaining read.
